Here is a rare old Steiff hand ? Tiger, an old hand puppet made of yellow/white mohair with black tiger stripes, Steiff silver script button, green plastic eyes, plastic whiskers, embroidered nose, and claws.
Steiff produced this very popular tiger puppet from 1952 to 1978 in various editions. Our old Steiff tiger here must have been produced in the last edition from 1968 to 1978; he has plastic safety eyes (earlier editions up to 1964 all came with glass eyes), and the brush work of this tiger is in such excellent and fresh condition!
Old Steiff Tiger is a highly collectible vintage Steiff glove puppet. Hand Tigers head is firmly stuffed with excelsior (wood wool), the plastic sheath for the puppet players finger is present. Our old tiger is in excellent vintage condition, mohair, embroidery, and brushwork are of the finest preservation! All Steiff IDs are lost though.

Vintage Steiff Hand Tiger measures 17 cm / 6 u00be inches ? glove only (fits to every average sized adult hand) and 23 cm / 9 inches with head.
Old Steiff mohair tiger puppet comes without the stand that is to be seen in the photographs!
